“Shrews” or terror in Difficult Times – La Voz de Galicia

As happened recently in San Sebastián, the Spanish film completely focuses attention on the start of this 47th Festival of Fantastic Film Sitges. After the launch on Friday of the fourth installment of Rec , which is inert and only housing, the gross franchise born right here seven years ago with a vivid film, the role yesterday is signed by Álex de la Iglesia, who is producer Shrews , debut and Juan Esteban Roel F. Andrew. It is Shrews something of a convoluted remix Love in the time and What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? Macarena Gómez and Nadia de Santiago are two sisters who lead unhealthy living and mourning war. And in fact, during the first hour of the envelope is more melodrama than anything else.

But in the final stretch Macarena Gómez, histrionic profession, starts pulling bodies from the closet, to make other, to give morphine and accelerate grandguiñol which includes many mannequins and hangers human flesh and skin Hugo Silva sabanazos stitched. Shrews measured da bad times and later the bloody loud bang. But do not desmerecerle excesses nor deface the stew is something like a Repulsion home cooked meals The Asturian. Rare is it that pastiche of De La Iglesia caught no prize.

Another flesh, alien shows Scarlett Johansson in Under the Skin , the cult modernez rampant signing Jonathan Glazer and inexplicably remained unreleased in Spain. Johansson, existentialist alien, Scotland wanders off road, dedicated to heating hormones hitchhikers and then drown them in vacuum, not dry. Glazer is understood to want to target here lunatic pretensions of Lynch’s film but remains in marcianada. More interest has Young Ones , Jake Paltrow apocalyptic western starring Michael Shannon, the water, the old style of the films Prairie greatest asset as a future indie touch but clean narrative and firm. Highly suggestive is the new subversion icon bogeyman makes Australian Jennifer Kent in the remarkable and disturbing The Babadook . And fine Belgian rave distilled Cub , Jonas Govaerts, macabre and ferocious sense of humor and homage to Who can kill a child? Ibanez Serrador.
